May 9, 2023 - On a glorious night to open the season at Kletzsch Park, YOUR Black Hats faced long time rival Metro. Sam Smulyan led off the game with a home run as we scored four runs in the top of the first inning. The barrage continued as Yosef Baldon crushed two home runs and later Black Hats rookie Andrew Hopper smacked a homer. In an amazing display of consistency, with every player getting at least one hit, our incredible squad scored in every inning except one; we never looked back and cruised to an 11-4 victory. Better still, there were no injuries. Now THAT is how to start the season!!
A few other highlights: Sam Smulyan was sensational at shortstop; Sam and David Smulyan combined for one of two electrifying double plays converted by the Black Hats. Both Scott Hicks and Joe went 4 for 4, each with a double, to energize the lower part of the batting lineup. Avner was masterful on the mound; supported by stout defense, Metro went scoreless for the final three innings. Every Black Hats player looked comfortable in the batter's box to secure this strong team victory.
